       <a href="https://www.scintilla.org/LexillaDoc.html">Lexilla</a> is a free library of language
       lexers that can be used with the <a href="https://www.scintilla.org/index.html">Scintilla</a>
       editing component.
       It comes with complete source code and a <a href="https://www.scintilla.org/License.txt">license</a> that
       permits use in any free project or commercial product.
    </p>
    <p>
       Originally, this functionality was incorporated inside Scintilla.
       It has been extracted as a separate project to make it easier for contributors to work on
       support for new languages and to fix bugs in existing lexers.
       It also defines a protocol where projects can implement their own lexers and distribute
       them as they wish.
    </p>
    <p>
       Current development requires a recent C++ compiler that supports C++17.
       The testing framework uses some C++20 features but the basic library only uses C++17.
    </p>
    <p>
       Lexilla is currently available for Intel Win32, macOS, and Linux compatible operating
      systems. It has been run on Windows 10, macOS 10.13+, and on Ubuntu 20.04 but is likely
      to run on earlier systems as it has no GUI functionality.
